- Yes. Grml provides a tool called grml2hd (see
- 'man grml2hd'). grml is developed
- on a box running the grml-system itself, and we - the grml-developers -
- especially like grml2hd because it gives us a working Linux box within
- 10 to 30 minutes. grml2hd is perfect for prototyping: test hardware
- support of Linux, test a specific setup, ... You can even use grml2hd in
- a fully automatic mode without any further interaction. But please note: grml2hd does NOT
